27 DRESSES (PG13) For those of you who wondered what in the world happened to the famous Avon "chick flicks", well, here is the newest!! The very popular Katherine Heigl from TV and the big screen, stars as a woman who has been a bridesmaid 27 times, but never a bride! Add to that a very appealing supporting cast including Edward Burns and James Marsden, and you have an A-1 Avon "romantic comedy" (I like that term so much better than "chick flick"). This one looks like a hoot, folks!

THE BUCKET LIST (PG13) Alright, so who knew?? I made the decision to open this in the smaller theater last weekend and leave JUNO in the big one, based on the huge business JUNO has been doing, and guess what???
History was made!
WE SOLD-OUT SEVEN SHOWS IN A ROW!!
Those of you who were there will know very well the barely-controlled chaos this movie caused! I guess I should have had more faith in the power of Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman! The idiot critics didn't like it at all, but, THE CUSTOMERS SURE DID!! This is a prime example of why you should NEVER make a decision on a movie based solely on what the critics say! Sometimes, they are right, but, sometimes they are VERY wrong! YOU WILL LOVE THIS MOVIE!!

JUNO (PG13) I am. frankly, flabbergasted at the number of people who have told me they have never heard of JUNO! Where have they been?? JUNO is considered one of the Best Films of the Year (and the critics are correct on this one) and is suitable for ALL age groups! To dismiss it as "the teenage pregnancy comedy" is really doing the film, and yourself, a disservice. This is a sweet, feel-good film that everyone who sees it has loved! It won't be here much longer, so you better hustle your bustle down to see it soon!

HOWEVER, wait just ONE little tiny week, and you can see it on Decatur's BIGGEST screen!!
(That's right, this one goes in the BIG theater! I learned my lesson!)
